NAOMI BURNS
A career of caring
Naomi found her calling in caring for others; she is currently a CNA at a skilled nursing facility in Anacortes. Seeing the difference she can make in other peoples lives brings her great joy and she loves working with her residents. Naomi makes it a point to get to know them as a person to make the residents feel more at home.
Naomi and Joe have been married for 9 years. They had been dating for a few months when they realized the two of them had met as kids many years before. Sometimes people are just drawn together until life works out as it should. Naomi and Joe waited until they found Sedro-Woolley, the place they wanted to put down their roots before starting their family and welcoming Eli into the world.

ELIJAH BURNS
Eli for short, of course he is the one everyone is here to see.
Eli is our rambunctious little boy. His favorite past times include playing with his toy cars, learning about countries (He knows almost all of them), and jumping on the trampoline.
Eli is a very inquisitive little boy who is always paying attention to what's going on around him. He loves playing with our dogs and playing fetch with our puppy. Eli also loves going to preschool.
Watching Eli grow has been the greatest joy of our lives! We are still amazed we created this tiny little human; we love him so very much!
